Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Asian Garmin Streetpilot
Good, but it is a little expensive and not very heavy on features or upgradibility. Wish it had Cantonese Chinese on it too.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Easy to use, but too many lost signals
The user interface is excellent. The installation is nothing to it. Its problem is too many lost signals. I don't know if a booster antenna can help. It is frustrating that when you need it the most (e.g. making turns), it quits on you.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - garmin streetpilot
this is a great product for my dad who doesnt speak english. very easy to use.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Problem with Taiwanese language
I bought this for my Taiwanese speaking parents and we just completed a 2 week road trip. It was disappointing that the Taiwanese is a direct translation of Mandarin Chinese, and word for word translations usually come out garbled. Some of the directions in Taiwanese were incomprehensible and in the end, my parents preferred the Mandarin version. However, the Mandarin voice is pleasant, clear, and very understandable. Some other criticisms:

1) Turn in 200 ft is actually turn NOW!
2) Not enough warning to get off when driving on the freeway unless you remember to look at the screen.
3) The GPS doesn't announce the street name. It just says to turn in X distance.
4) it's hard for people to read screens if they wear bifocals or are far sighted.

Pros:
1) Really easy to use out of the box and the touch screen interface is nice.
2) Useful when really lost
3) Can find gas stations or restaurants close to current or final destination.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Just ok
If you don't know how to find the way home, its really help. But if you want to find some places new, then you may not rely on this GPS. As the map of this model is not new. If you want to get the latest map, you need to buy online for $69.99.
